Commercial Description:
Brewed in the centuries old tradition of German beers, our brewers use more wheat and proprietary yeast to give it the unmistakable character of a flavorful, authentic Hefeweizen. The High proportion of wheat gives In Heat its smooth, full-mouth feel and our special yeast gives it its unique fruity and spicy aroma.

Poured this beer from the bottle. Beer hits the glass a cloudy orange yellow with a quick fading white head. Aroma is leans towards the spicy clove side, with lots of banana esters to the nose. Flavor is a great mixture of wheat, fruityness of banana and lots clove flavor at the end. Flavors are a bit weaker than the aroma would make you think. Overall not a bad beer and the only qualm I have with it is the fact that its a bit watery. If it were just a little heavier I think the flavors whould really shine!

12oz bottle from Total Wine (Tampa, FL). Pours a cloudy dark yellow to golden color with virtually no head. Aroma is bready, yeast, wheaty with notes of banana, sweet malt and spice. Flavor is much of the same with more prominent banana and slight citrus notes. Generally light bodied with a somewhat sweet, spicy finish.

Draught at EBF08. Cloudy dark orange colour. Slightly sweet spicy aroma and flavour. Mild and wheaty. Refreshing, but not too interesting.

Draught at EBF. Very cloudy golden colour with a medium white head. Very yesty aroma with banana and clove. Fruity flavour with banana and clove to be in front. End up sweet and refreshing.

i didn’t know i would fall in love with flying dog this much when i bought the sampler pack tonight for our FRANKENSTEIN book club meeting - but i did, and i have. in-heat wheat glistens like sedimentary river water in a biology class test tube. grab the microscope, kids, there’s all kinds of swirling sifts of citrus and banana and coriander and yeasty hot spots spritzing about the aroma bed of this sample. the flavor confirms the aroma - full on humungous hefe-ness, scratched on the belly by mellow washes of wheat and grain. this is a good beer. a perfect beer to finish out this showing of RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD. nothing screams zombies like a lively citrus wheat!

Draught at EBF 2008. Hazy golden colour with a small white head. Rich aroma and taste of yeast, banana and fruits. Short finish. (served too cold)

I found this to consist of all the tell-tale signs of a great hefe. Not my favorite style but, on a hot summer day this one hits the spot.
